== Description

Updatecli is most effective when executed regularly and automatically.

== Example
The current example is inspired by the repository https://github.com/jenkins-infra/charts[jenkins-infra/charts].

=== Requirement

* We assume using Jenkins with agent running from kubernetes using the https://plugins.jenkins.io/kubernetes/[kubernetes-plugin].
* We assume having access to credentials needed by your updatecli configurations which is "updatecli-github-token" in this case.

The Jenkins agent uses the updatecli docker image to execute updatecli every 30 minutes.
It applies the configurations found under the directory "./updatecli/updatecli.d" using the parameters in "./updatecli/values.yaml".
